#1 The North-Coast 500

@soyrosa takes us along the North Coast of Scotland. A beautiful drive takes us from one beautiful spot right on to the next. The road takes @soyrosa through the Baleach Na Ba Pass - a small single track with two way-traffic, which made for quite a challenging drive. Eventually they make it to the Applecross Peninsula - the only thing you you will find here is a small inn right next to the beach where passerby's spend some time. The views around the peninsula are stunning, and make it well worth a visit!

#2 Magical gardens of Melbourne

@thewam takes us to gardens of Melbourne. Whilst walking around through these gardens @thewam tells us a bit more about several of the sights. From the paved areas, you'll still be able to spot the skyscrapers in the background. The park is also a cultural hub, with some funky and some more traditional pieces of art being showcased. As it is still a park there is ofcourse an abundance of beautiful and well taken care of plant life to be found! You'll also be able to find a beautiful pavilion, an outdoor performance venue and a herbarium containing 1.5 million dried plants!

#3 THE BIRTHPLACE OF TIMBER TRADING AND GOLD MINING .

@highonthehog takes us to Knysa in South Africa. The whole area surrounding this town is one of the richest ecological estuaries. The Knysa forest covers about 300.000 hectares. Before the 18th century herds of hundreds of elephants would roam these forest. Nowadays no more than five elephants remain. In the 18th century the forest was exploited for its valuable timber - critically reducing the forest. Later on there was also gold found in the Knysa river, attracting fortune seekers from all over the world. In the 21st century the area was redeveloped, with attention for the ecological, architectural and cultural values of the area.
